Hypertensive saline solution

It is not always necessary to use expensive procedures or medicines to treat any diseases. Sometimes in the fight against the disease come to the aid of the usual substances that can be found in any home.

What is this - hypertonic salt solution?

Hypertonic solution of table salt is, in fact, water, which is prepared with a certain concentration of salt. Hypertensive is a solution that has an increased concentration of the substance and an osmotic pressure with respect to the intracellular. In this solution, the salt concentration can reach 10%. When using such a solution, a peculiar stretching of the intracellular fluid occurs in the area of ​​use. In addition to hypertonic saline there are:

• isotonic (this solution is characterized by the equality of osmotic pressure and intracellular);
• hypotonic (ie with a lower concentration of the substance).

When should I use the solution?

As a treatment, hypertonic salt solution, can be used for a large number of diseases, both external and internal. This method of treatment helps to get rid of joint problems, is used when:

• bruises;
• stretching ;
• open and inflamed wounds;
• injuries;
• inflammatory processes of the nasopharynx;

How to prepare a hypertonic salt solution?

Prepare a hypertonic salt solution is very simple. To obtain it, you should:

1. Take 1 liter of simple boiled water. You can also use distilled or thawed water.
2. Dissolve in this water 90 grams of salt.
3. Stir must be very carefully, until the crystals of salt completely dissolved. In case of difficulty, you can warm up the water - this will help speed up the process.
4. As a result, we get 9% hypertonic sodium chloride solution.

Depending on the disease and the desired effect, the salt concentration can be changed. For example:

• with diseases of the throat (sore throat, cold, etc.), the dose of salt decreases to 2 grams per 100 ml of water;
• 8% solution is suitable for treatment of rhinitis ;
• For a cleansing enema, a solution with a 5% concentration can be prepared.

How to use a hypertonic solution?

The use of a hypertonic solution often occurs in the form of bandages or lotions. For their preparation, each time a fresh solution is required:

1. In it, for a minute, a gauze cut is added, folded into 8-9 layers. You can also use old towels or flannel.
2. Then the fabric is squeezed so that water does not flow and is applied to the sore spot. On top of it lies a bandage of pure wool.
3. To fix this design it is possible with the help of an adhesive plaster, bandage or a suitable cut of tissue. It should be noted that this dressing has a therapeutic effect only under the condition of air permeability. Therefore, the use of polyethylene or other airtight materials is completely excluded.

Such compresses are made for the night until full recovery, which occurs on the 7-10th day. But with complex diseases this time can increase.

Now you know how to make a hypertonic salt solution at home, but remember a few rules:

1. For each use, only a new solution is required, so do not prepare it for the future.
2. The solution should be hot enough.
3. In diseases of the nasopharynx, the solution can be used both for rinsing (washing) and for dressings.
4. The dressing is used only from air-permeable materials.
5. In case of using a dressing for diseases of internal organs, it is applied from the outside to the area of ​​this organ. With pulmonary diseases, the bandage is located on the back.
6. After use, the cloth is thoroughly rinsed in running water.
